Creamy Pesto Pasta

Ingredients:

• About 1/2 a box of wheat penne noodles
• 1.5 cups cream
• 1/2 cup parmesean cheese
• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper
• Pesto (you can make this yourself or buy it in a jar already prepared)

Directions

1. Boil penne noodles until soft. Drain. Set aside. 

2. Put the butter and garlic powder in a skillet. Melt over medium heat. 

3. Add the cream. Whisk the cream together with the butter. Bring the sauce to a low boil. Allow to boil for about three minutes or until the sauce thickens. 

4. Reduce heat to low. Add the parmesean cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk together well. 

5. Add the noodles. Stir the noodles until they are well saturated. Add the pesto and mix throughout the noodles. Everyone's pesto preference differs, so feel free to add as much or as little pesto as you want. Feel free to top it off with more parmesean.

Note: Garlic powder works better than fresh garlic cloves in this recipe. You will rarely ever hear me say that, but in this case its true.
